Usage
# example .env
FOO=bar
BAR=foo
WHAT=${BAR}-${FOO}
$env = new DotEnv(__DIR__.'/../config', '.env'); $env->load(['foo']); // foo is required // get a variable $foo = $_ENV['FOO']; // -> bar $foo = $env->get('FOO'); // -> bar $foo = $env->FOO; // -> bar // dynamically set a variable $env->set('foo', 'whatever'); $env->FOO = 'whatever'; $foo = $env->get('FOO'); // -> whatever // ... // variable substitution $foo = $env->get('WHAT'); // -> foo-bar
// avoid the global environment $env = (new DotEnv(__DIR__.'/../config', '.env', false))->load(); $foo = $_ENV['FOO']; // -> undefined $foo = $env->get('FOO'); // -> bar $foo = $env->FOO; // -> bar
